The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been around close to a decade but continues going from strength to strength. Based on the reviews and box office performance of every movie they release, Kevin Feige and company can seemingly do no wrong. Unfortunately, the same can't exactly be said for Warner Bros. and its DC Films. Just look at the differing responses to Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman!
In a recent interview to promote the release of Thor: Ragnarok, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige was asked what the DC Films Universe must do to succeed and had a rather diplomatic answer.
"I don’t know," he confessed. "I’m not one to bestow advice onto others. I think you can look at what they did with ‘Wonder Woman’ and they’ve figured that out. I’ve got great confidence in Geoff Johns over there and now Joss Whedon helping them out that just makes me excited as a fan to see what’s next." The big test for Warner Bros. now will obviously be Justice League and whether or not Aquaman is able to reach the same heights as this summer's Wonder Woman movie critically and financially.
Time will tell on that front but there's no denying that the DC Films Universe is in a much better position these days. After all, Joss Whedon has done a lot of work on Justice League and studio bosses finally seem to understand the best direction to take these comic book adaptations in. Thoughts?
